Since then, variations of the $15 game have started to pop up around the net, challenging fans to create all-time lineups for specific teams. We decided to create our own version of the game with a Sacramento Kings’ spin. See the image below and pick your all-time, Kings starting five (Sacramento-era only).

Originally, I had Mitch Richmond at shooting guard and settled for Brian Grant at power forward. But, I decided instead to swap Webber in at power forward and Christie at shooting guard. Even though they’re not sharpshooters, Christie and Thomas are both capable 3-point threats. Having two lockdown, perimeter defenders in Christie and Artest covers up any lack of rim protection from my chosen frontline. Cousins is certainly capable of passing just as well as Vlade Divac and the opportunity to play him and Webber together is an interesting idea. Thomas at point guard for $1 was the best bargain outside of maybe Cousins for $4 at center.
